Hey there fellow moto enthusiasts, it's Big Iron Moto coming to you from the legendary Sunday Creek Raceway in Millfield, Ohio, home to the John Penton GNCC.

Engineered with 95% new components, these machines are designed to redefine the enduro landscape. So, buckle up and join me as we explore their revolutionary new frame, groundbreaking suspension, sleek bodywork, LED headlight, and industry-defining tech. Ready to see some limits redefined? Let's ride! 🏍💨
KTM, with over 30 years of racing prowess and a whopping 126+ World Enduro titles, continues to be the enduro juggernaut. The 2024 KTM Enduro range is proof of KTM's relentless quest for innovation and improvement.
The 2024 models have an all-new hydro-formed, laser-cut, and robot-welded frame, delivering unparalleled rider feedback and stability. I personally felt the difference in longitudinal and torsional flex parameters, enhancing the riding experience in ways I hadn't imagined possible.
Suspension-wise, these bikes boast a new 48 mm WP XACT Closed Cartridge spring fork. The revised mid-valve piston concept optimizes oil flow within the cartridge. The revamped PDS shock system works in perfect harmony with the new frame concept.
KTM has also designed a new lightweight 2-piece subframe and integrated an Offroad Control Unit. As a rider, you'll appreciate the outstanding handling and easy access to all electronic components. The new bodywork provides an improved rider triangle for better knee contact when standing on the pegs.
The new front fender design with mud-repelling fins is a game-changer. Coupled with a clear polythene fuel tank for easy fuel level monitoring, these are some practical improvements that any enduro rider will appreciate. A standalone OCU under the seat simplifies troubleshooting on the trail.
When it comes to engines, the 2-stroke range steals the show, introducing the Throttle Body Injection tech (TBI). This delivers near-carburetor smoothness of power delivery and eliminates the need for re-jetting at different altitudes. The reed valve case design has also been updated to improve fuel sealing, avoiding fuel excess in extreme slopes.
The 4-stroke models offer massive torque down low and explosive power at higher RPMs. They've improved handling and maneuverability through adjustments in the engine and front sprocket position. And for the first time, the 2024 KTM 450 XCF-W model introduces an optional Traction Control and the groundbreaking Quickshifter function!
The 2024 KTM Enduro range is a testament to KTM's commitment to excellence in Enduro competition. They've seamlessly blended performance, ergonomics, and technology to redefine limits and take on any terrain.
As always, KTM's global dealer network ensures support and parts are readily available. Plus, KTM PowerWear and KTM PowerParts are designed to maximize performance, protection, and mobility.
Starting from June, the all-new 2024 KTM XC-W and XCF-W range will be available at authorized KTM dealers. The dual-sport KTM EXC-F models will follow in August. For more info on pricing and availability, check out KTM's website.
